Demolition
in China is often a sensitive, political subject: The
economic development change the Chinese cities and change the old architecture. A
lot of colourful, poignant paintings began to appear amid the rubble on at
least two building sites.
The
publicity, though, attracted dozens of curious visitors and amateur
photographers to one of the demolition sites in Shanghai's Jing'an district. They're
the work of French graffiti artist Julien Malland and Chinese artist Shi Zheng. Some
of those old houses that found themselves inadvertently in the middle of the
open-air art gallery still have people living in them. As
the walls are being torn down around them and they put red flags as a symbol of
protest for the homes they don't want to lose.
This
news explain that sometimes the little things are important and can make think
the people. This
story is an example of art that reaches the hearts of people and it can make
art anywhere. The
painting and many other types of art have always served to vindicate different
things, especially social issues.
The
news explain that although the progress is good and also the construction of
the big buildings sites is a breakthrough but before the old customs are also
good.
I
think it is a shame that these paintings have been destroyed, but I understand
that the government need impede the access of people because these areas are
already destroyed and the persons could have an accident.
